Devil With a Blue Dress On/Good Golly Miss Molly Lyrics
Mitch Ryder & the Detroit Wheels

Fee, fee, fi, fi, fo-fo, fum
Look at Molly now [2: look out once again, now], here she comes
Wearin' her wig hat and shades to match
She's got high-heel shoes and an alligator hat
Wearin' her pearls and her diamond rings
She's got bracelets on her fingers, now, and everything
She's the devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on
Devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on
Wearin' her perfume, Chanel No. 5
Got to be the finest girl alive
She walks real cool, catches everybody's eye
She's got such good lovin' that they can't say goodbye
Not too skinny, she's not too fat
She's a real humdinger and I like it like that
She's the devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on
Devil with the blue dress, blue dress, blue dress,
Devil with the blue dress on

("Good Golly Miss Molly" interlude:)
Good golly, Miss Molly
You sure like to ball
Good golly, Miss Molly
You sure like to ball
While you're rockin' and rollin'
Can't you hear your mama call
From the early, early mornin' 'til the early, early nights
See Miss Molly rockin' at the House of Blue Lights
Good golly, Miss Molly
You sure like to ball
While you're rockin' and rollin'
Can't you hear your mama call

Return to "Devil With The Blue Dress"
Background
"Devil With The Blue Dress On" was originally recorded by Frederick "Shorty" Long as a single in 1964. It was co-written with Motown producer Mickey (William) Stevenson. Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels covered it in 1966, paired with "Good Molly Miss Molly," in a much speeded-up version.
[LP version repeats entire first verse; single edit omits first four
lines]

Directions:

From I-25 take the exit for Relief Route 599 and drive for 9 miles. Take the exit for Camino La Tierra/Las Campanas. At the stop sign you will turn left. Set your odometer to zero. In about a mile you will come to a 4-way stop sign, continue straight ahead. At 2.4 miles the road forks – take the left fork for Camino La Tierra. At 4.8 miles you will make a right turn on to Old Buckman Road, the road becomes wash-boardy. Drive on Old Buckman Road for 7.3 miles at which time you will see a sign and turn to the left that will lead you to a parking area for Diablo Canyon.
You can also get to the Camino La Tierra/Las Campanas exit by taking St. Francis Drive (Hwy 84/285) north and then take the exit for Relief Route 599. In about 4 miles you will get to the exit. From here turn right and then follow the above directions.

I have created maps and lists for boxes in the Santa Fe Area, in the Alphabetical New Mexico Series and a few other areas. You can access all of these by going to Maps and Lists for Santa Fe Area and Alphabetical New Mexico Series. Please be advised that I don’t get to check up on them on a regular basis. So, make sure you look at the clues to see if the box is ACTIVE, UNKNOWN, UNAVAILABLE, or RETIRED.
